True North Federal Credit Union is a full service financial institution offering savings accounts, checking accounts, consumer loans, real estate loans, mortgages and now business services. Credit Unions are distinguishable from banks in that they are member-owned and controlled, the credit union motto being "not for profit, but for service". Membership in True North is open to most Alaskans, including all Yakutat residents and their families. For more information, contact the branch at 784-3304.
